Full-time Licensed Clinician
Friendly City Psychology is searching for a full-time licensed clinician to join our thriving group practice in Harrisonburg, VA. The primary responsibility of this role is the delivery of clinical services to an outpatient client population. Additional professional opportunities are available based on clinician interest, practice & community need, and professional experience.
Minimum Qualifications
Qualified applicants are licensed in Virginia as a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, or Licensed Professional Counselor.
Desired Qualifications
We want a colleague who appreciates a good sense of humor, wants to be a part of a healthy community, loves sharing good food, and has a passion for providing high quality mental health services. We want someone who enjoys consulting and collaborating with colleagues and works well independently. Generalists are welcome! However, if you happen to have a specialty with the following services, clinical issues, or populations, it would be valuable to our practice, eating disorders and body image issues, autism spectrum disorders, couples counseling, children and adolescents, and BIPOC communities.
Compensation
We pay people what they are worth to do what they love. We provide a minimum salary with a commission earned for anything billed above minimum billing amounts. We have designed our contract to be one of the most competitive in our market. Compensation depends on a few variables (e.g., reimbursement rates, services provided, sessions billed, etc.). Our average annual compensation range for LPCs is $70,000 - $100,000 and LCPs is $81,250 - $120,000. It is possible to make more than that and still maintain a healthy work-life balance. We have a very low annual minimum billing requirement and encourage everyone to take at least 4-5 weeks of vacation a year. The autonomy and flexibility this position provides is almost impossible to find in any other system. You get to create your own caseload, pick the populations and clinical issues you want to work with, and design your own schedule. Most of us work four days a week.
The practice pays for all the business, administrative, and operating expenses, as well as the employer contribution for payroll taxes, yearly licensure renewal fees, approved professional development and continuing education experiences, provides furnished offices, all the necessary software, EHR platform, equipment, and marketing and advertising materials. We have an amazing office manager who provides administrative, credentialing, and billing support. We also offer health insurance, dental, and vision benefits.
About Us
We are proud of the community we have created and want to make sure private practice is healthy and sustainable. We’ve tried to accentuate the aspects that make private practice appealing and minimize what makes it challenging. You don’t need private practice experience to make a meaningful contribution to our staff. Everyone on our team brings a unique perspective and expertise. However, if you have a particular expertise related to private practice, we’d love to learn from you. We have created a community that provides as much support, care, and resources for each other as we do for our clients. We also make time to schedule long lunches outside of the office throughout the week to support our mental health and our local restaurants! Our main goal is to create an environment where you enjoy what you do, enjoy the people you work with, and look forward to coming into work every day.
Start Date
We would like our new colleague to join us as soon aspossible. However, we can be flexible in exploring start dates and the timeline for transitioning to the practice.
